[Breathes shakily]

Cam: What happened, Freddy?

Just give me a second.

Let me look at you.

Come on. Let me look at you.

Give me a second.

Okay.

Jesus.

Here.

Wipe your face.

Wipe the f*cking blood from your face.

Oh.

Okay, kid.

Okay.

Mm-hmm.

Isaac: Come on, kiddo.

Whose blood is that, Freddy?

You can talk to us.

Whose blood you wearing?

What?

Oh.

Whose f*cking blood are you wearing?

What happened, Freddy?!

What happened?!

Just back off, man.

Just give me a second, all right?

Whose blood is that, Freddy?

Now, whose blood are you f*cking wearing?

Whose blood are you wearing?

Can you just let me breathe for a second?

Whose blood are you wearing?

I hear your question!

Can you just let me breathe for a f*cking second?!

Please!

Please.

Come on, Pop!

It's okay, son.

You can talk to me.

We're family, right?

[Breathes shakily]

It's all right.

[Beeping]

[Elevator bell dings]

What's going on?

[Beeps]

Now, tell me what happened.

Where's Jake?

You high, Freddy?

Did you call Jake? Is he coming?

Whose blood are you wearing, Freddy?

You gonna keep saying that over and over again?!

I'll f*cking tell you!

Yeah, yeah, you f*cking will.

Okay! Then it's...

Come on, Freddy.

[Buzzer, door clicks]



Okay.

There he is.

Jake.

Yeah.

[Scoffs]

[Sniffling]

Jake: Hey.

What did you do?

Hmm?

Oh.

There he is.

What did you do?

[Chuckles]

I... I motherfucked him.

Freddy?

Freddy, look at me. Freddy.

You got to tell me what you did, man.

Tell me exactly what you did.

Okay?

[Plane engine whirs loudly]

[Car alarm blaring, horn honking in distance]

Cam: Jesus Christ.

You k*lled Avi?

Jesus f*cking Christ, put a g*n to my head, why don't you?

Freddy: He was... he was a f*cking assh*le... assh*le!

You know he was.

Every deal you ever did with the guy, he shorted you 20 cents on every dollar.

Stop it! Stop it!

Keep your voices down.

Isaac...

Hey.

Hey, Pop, you know what?

You see that? He was trying to... he was trying to sell me fake stones, huh?

You believe that? This m*therf*cker was trying to sell your boy fake stones.

Freddy...

What f*cking dr*gs you on?

Huh?

I'm not on any dr*gs.

Okay, this is Avi's sh*t.

And then he was coked out of his head.

See all the dr*gs on the table, he was f*cking...

Pop, do you hear me?

Avi... he was high on coke and he tried... he pulled a g*n on me.

You know I hate g*ns, Pop.

[Praying in Hebrew]

Would you stop f*cking praying?

Please, will you stop f*cking praying?!

[Horn honks in distance]

You know what, it was... it was either him or me, Pop.

I would have been lying down there, facedown in a... a pool full of blood.

Is that what you would rather...

All the pain and garbage you both dragged around, the dirt that covers both your lives, that's not because of something you did.

That comes from me.

Pop.

Cam: f*ck.

[Plane engine whirs loudly]

This is Lady Rah's main guy.

Do you know what that means?

It means we can have a w*r on our hands we can't f*cking win.

That's the f*cking reality of it.

That's what you've f*cking done.

Where'd you put the g*n?

[Retches]

Freddy.

[Coughing]

The what?

g*n.

The g*n?

I put it in the fridge over there.

What?

What?

I put it in the fridge, the little white... the f*cking fridge right there!

Right behind you.

The refrigerator?

Freddy: Yeah, what?

That's...

[Sighs]

[Siren wails in distance]

Oh, f*ck.

[Sobbing softly]

Did you think you'd freeze the prints off it, you f*cking putz?

I don't f*cking know!

Jake...

I don't know!

Jake?

You think I've done this before?

What are we gonna do now?

We call The Baker.

[Freddy grunts]

We don't have a choice, Pop.

What are you doing? You gonna cut his body up?

He's gonna cut his balls off.

I'm getting the f*cking b*llet out of the ground, man.

Okay.

Come on.

We got to pick up the body.

f*ck no, I'm not touching that body.

Get the f*cking leg.

It's your f*cking mess!

I'll f*cking... grab it.

[Plane engine whirs loudly]

Cam: We can burn this fucker as much as you like, but Lady Rah, she's gonna f*cking smell it.

Isaac, they're gonna come for Freddy.

Let's get the f*ck out of here.

[Engine starts, revs]

[Incinerator hissing]

I thought about paying, but I decided not to.



[Speaking native language]

Get the body.

[Fire roars]

[Clears throat, sniffles]



[Men grunting]



Chuy? Yeah.

I'm with him now. We're on our way.

Freddy: Is it done?

Say what you want about these Catholics, but they are g*dd*mn efficient.

Get in the f*cking car.

[Sighs]

[Clears throat, sniffles]

[Engine starts]

Where are we going now?

I'm taking you to Chuy's.

He's babysitting you.

[Chuckles] f*cking great.

[Door closes]

[Chirps]

[Engine starts]

[Clicks]



[Cellphone ringing]

Jake: Yeah?

Cam: Is Freddy secure?

He's secure.

Good, good.

Dropped him off with Chuy.

Now I'm gonna go check on Ava and Willow.

[Cellphone beeps]

[Birds calling]



[Door opens, closes]



Ava?

[Sighs]

Hey.

[Bird calling in distance]

Where's Willow?

She slept at Carly's.

You sure?

She's there.

[Cellphone clatters lightly]

What's going on?

Freddy.

How bad is it?

That's your go bag.

$150,000.

Jesus.

If anything happens... you know what to do.

[Sighs]

You and Willow just take the money and go.

Is he okay?

For now.



Are you okay?

I don't know.

Come here.

Jake: Freddy really f*cked up this time.

I don't know if I can fix it.

Every time you help him, it gets worse.

He's my brother.

He's slowly k*lling you.

All of you.



You know I love you, right?

[Music continues]

Hey.

Thank you.

Hey.

What?

You want to stop eye-f*cking my sister, Freddy?

Eye-f*cking.

Why, you think she's into me?

You want me to cut your eyes out with a screwdriver?

Look, if you're gonna k*ll me, you got to use that... that ghetto AK-47 you got over there.

I know a few people who'd be happy with that.

All right, let me focus.

[Clears throat]

[Conversation in Spanish on television]

Contemplation is su1c1de in this game, Freddy.

See, if you're not thinking three moves ahead, guess what, m*therf*cker.

I am.

Now, this here board is an empire.

Royalty with endless possibilities of geographies, landscapes.

And family... most importantly family.

Right?

You got all this sh*t in front of you... and you can't even see past your front yard.

Can I make my move now?

Go ahead.

Thank you.

[Inhales]

Sure you want to make that move?

No, that's not the move.

Dude...

Let me ask you a question, Freddy.

When are you gonna grow the f*ck up and stop messing with your family?

Don't you think it's time to get...

Can you... can I f*cking concentrate?

You're f*cking with my concentration, Chuy.

[Speaking Spanish]

[Replies in Spanish]

[Conversing in Spanish]

Bobby Fischer would be rolling in his f*cking grave.

All right, f*ck this! I don't want to play.

[Sighs]

[Thumps]

Chuy?

This isn't Brentwood.

So you must be out of your f*cking mind if you think you can roll up in here, acting like a f*cking Kardashian.

I think they're from Calabasas...

You're gonna shut the f*ck up.

Just because Cam asked me to sit on your ass doesn't mean that you can bring this bullshit to my front door.

You're going to apologize to Angelina for acting like a f*cking animal in her house.

Let me hear it.

I'm sorry, Angie, for acting like a f*cking animal.

Chuy...

You're gonna clean all this sh*t up, and you're gonna reset the board just the way that it was while I take a piss, okay?



[Speaking Spanish]

[Grunts]

He always takes his chess game so serious.

Yeah, he does. He's very emotional, isn't he?

Like, he studies Garry Kasparov and sh*t.

Garry Kas... Who the f*ck is that?

[Sighs] The number-one chess player in the world.

Really?

Chuy thinks he could b*at him.

Do you think he can b*at him?

No, I think you could b*at him.

You play?

I don't really f*ck with it too much anymore.



Are you guys ready to try this again?

Dude, did you wash your hands?

[Sighs]

All right.

I'll give you that one.

Man: Flight 1280, cleared to L.A.X.

Flight runway heading, departure on 90.6, squawk 0-0-7-8.



We got $2.7 million in cash on the table, and after that, we're f*cking hemorrhaging.

We can offer $2 million as a payoff.

The whole f*cking thing is going down the toilet... everything we worked for.

Jake, what do you think?

I think it has nothing to do with Avi.

Lady Rah wants something else.

It's f*cking Freddy she wants.

We have to protect Freddy.

[Tires screech]

She wants to see you, Jake.

She came a long way just to see you.

Out.



He's here.

Man: Wait here.



My diamond man.

You're platinum, Jacob.

Shiny f*cking platinum.

Mmm.

Do you like the view?

Jake: Why am I here?

I bet you do.

What, you don't drink rum anymore?

Well, then sit the f*ck down, because I don't intend on looking up at you.

[Growling]

That's nicer.

Eye to eye.

Light?

Hm.

[Lighter clicks shut]

There's a legend about hyenas.

That they were domesticated, trained to carry diamonds around their necks into the mines of their masters.

Anyone who betrayed those diamond lords were fed to those very same domesticated animals.

It's foolish to think that anyone could ever really control the natural instincts of an animal, don't you think?

We all eventually revert back to exactly what we are.

Your brother, for example... causes a lot of trouble for the Green family, Jacob.

I mean, I... have to imagine growing up with an addict can't be easy.

Always having to bail him out.

I can offer two mil.

That is a very strong opening offer.

Very strong.

It's the only offer.

Mm-hmm.

However, we all know that Avi was a piece of sh*t.

But that piece of sh*t was my top earner... my top stone runner.

But maybe there's another way.

I put one to Freddy's dome, and then we're all square.

[Hyena snarling]

I like it when you hold your tongue.

Some people find it... uncomfortable, a turnoff.

But not me.

I find it sexy.

Does Ava, your ex-wife that you are still f*cking... does she find the strong, silent type sexy?

Maybe we should ask her, huh?

What do you think?

Two mil.

That's what I came to offer.

That's what we can come up with.

You amuse me.

Not because of your insignificant offer, but because you still think taking the high road gets things done.

Thank you.

Freddy: No, no, no, no, no.

Man: Now beg for me to k*ll you.

Ow, stop!

[Grunting]

Everyone has a price, Jacob.

Ow, f*ck.

Bring me a better offer.

[Grunting]

You're in my world now, Jacob.

[Fist pounds]

[Grunts]



[Horns honking]



[Bells chime]

[Siren wails in distance]

The Rabbi: Silberman, please!

Take care of Mrs. Wang!

What are you...

Oh.

This is not a yard sale.

Now, you take my price or go elsewhere.

Hey, quit the negotiating.

This is retail!

Ya'aqov, ma nishma?

I'm trying to get out ahead on something.

How much?

Five mil.

[Siren wails in distance]

That's a lot of money.

And you know we're good for it.

Mm.

Lady Rah, she might disagree.

Since when does your money have a conscience?

[Whispers indistinctly]

[Whispers in Yiddish]

Okay.

But a 42% vig on this.

$7 million to get $5 million?

Since when's the juice that high?

Since the whispers about Freddy are getting louder.

Shmueli.

There's your money.

$7 million to get $5 million.

Ya'aqov... how long has your father been across the street?

45 years.

And because of that time and history that I afford you this loan, payable in full to us and in 60 days.

This would be a shonda to lose it all.

You know... when one man turns his back on you, you can still see the horizon.

But when 12 men do it, all you see... is darkness.

[Engine revving]



[Cellphone ringing]

[Cellphone beeps]

Jake: Alexi, I'm on my way.

I need your help.

[Cellphone beeps]



Word flies, bro.

Might want to reconsider Shlomo's offer.

42% vig is crazy, and you know it.

It's not too crazy for a man with a target on his back.

[Sniffing]

Good sh*t, good sh*t.

[Chuckles]

Man: This one's good to go.

Nobody on the street is gonna want to deal with you now.

Not for the amount you're after.

Look at this, eh?

[Sniffs]

Real Cuban... from China.

Eh?

f*ck Uber.

Somebody's got to use the cabs, huh?

Jake: Alexi...

Lady Rah is pressing hard on us.

I got to help Freddy.

I can maybe break you off... half a mil.

I need 10 times that.

I love you.

But I love money more.

I can't help you beyond that amount, brother.

It's a ghost. No serial number.

Got some hollow tips to go with it, too.

I got g*ns.

I need cash.

Okay.

Got an option for you if you've got the balls.

Come work with me, Jake.

We'll make a lot of money.

Watch your back, Jakey.

I'm gonna miss you, Jewboy!

Let's move this merchandise.

Okay. You know what would be cool?

If I could bum a cigarette.

One cigarette.

I'll send you a whole carton once we, uh, you know, get all this sorted out.

[Grunts] Seriously.

Seriously, come on.

No.

I'm just kidding. I'm just talking.

Don't... Come on, man.

Don't... All right, I'm sorry.

I don't want to...

Seriously?

Oh, yeah!

Yes!

[Lighter clicking]

Thank you, man.

[Grunting]

That pain you feel right now, that's the pressure of your optic nerves being crushed.

Your eyeballs are moving back into your skull.

[Grunting]

In about seven seconds, the pain in your head will be unbearable.

You will black out, but not before you piss yourself... and beg for me to k*ll you.

[Grunting]

f*ck!

Oh, man!

[Grunts]

Oh, f*ck.

Oh.

[Gasping]

[Speaking native language]



[Sighs]



[Door closes, lock clicks]

Pop?

Hey, Pop?

[Floorboards creaking]

[Sighs]

Hey, Pop...

Pop?

[g*n cocks]

Whoa, whoa.

Jesus!

Good God!

[Sighs]

I can't...

I can't keep going like this, kid.

Stop.

I could have sh*t you.

I've been getting these headaches.

I...

I talked to a Realtor.

Lady Rah has Freddy.

He's fine, and I'll get him back.

I promise I'll get him back, Pop.

[Gasps]

Okay?

Got to go find him, Jake.

He's not made like you.

He's not gonna last.

We got to go find him.

We got to...

You know where she took him?

We got to find...

[Coughs, gasping]

[Clattering]

Pop!

All right, all right, all right! Sit down. Sit down.

You're fine. You're fine. You're fine.

[Grunting]

[Siren wails]

Just breathe. Just breathe, Pop!

[Wailing continues]
[Monitor beeping slowly]

Cam: Isaac?

This ain't your time.

And this ain't the f*cking place.

Brother...

Freddy, Jake...

Cam?

He's been spoon-fed all of his f*cking life.

He's been protected his whole f*cking life.

Now, we've got to look at the bigger picture here.

Jesus, he...

He's your f*cking blood.

Yeah, well, you know...

It was me who... who f*cking brought you up with this old man.

Huh? I put the seven bucks in your shoes.

But now we got to start thinking about, you know, us as a collective and less about Freddy.

We busted our asses to keep him out of trouble.

You spent most of your life looking after him.

I... I got my brother laying here, your father.

Everything could be gone... because of f*cking Freddy.

And I got Lady Rah pulling my f*cking numbers.

Yes, it's about family.

Our family.

And it's about f*cking loyalty.

But, you know, sometimes, you got to know what bridge to cross.

And you got to know what bridge to burn.

[Siren wailing]

And maybe it's time to burn his f*cking bridge.

[Door opens, closes]

[Monitor continues beeping]



[Footsteps]

Jake: All right, Pop.

You got to fight right now, Pop.

You got to fight like a m*therf*cker.

Harder than you ever fought for anything in your life.

You hear me?

Just squeeze my hand if you can hear me, Pop.



[Cellphone vibrating]

Yeah?

Man: You've got a nice house, Jake.

Just letting you know we're here, keeping a close eye on that beautiful wife of yours.



[Engine revving]



[Car door closes]

[g*n cocks]

Man: That's far enough, Jake.

Lady Rah sends her best to that beautiful wife of yours.

You need to stay the f*ck away from my family.

Your brother's running out of time.

I think we're good here.

[Engine starts]

[Vehicle doors close]



Ava?

[Door closes]

Ava?

Ava: Yeah, I'm out here.

You okay?

Yeah.

You're bleeding.

Why do you have a g*n?

Did anybody come by today?

No, why?

Where's Willow?

She's at Carly's.

What's going on?

Are you sure?

Call her, please.

[Ringing]

Willow: Hello?

Willow. Hi, Mom.

Hi, honey.

Uh, why are you calling?

Yeah, oh, nothing. I'm just checking in.

Okay? Still at Carly's?

Yeah, I need a ride later.

Okay, yeah.

Just call me when you're ready.

I will.

Okay.

Bye.

Bye.

[Breathing deeply]

Do you want to tell me what the f*ck is going on?

Sorry.

I'm being cautious.

You're bleeding, and you have a g*n.

Are they looking for Freddy?

I'm being cautious.

You're not gonna tell me?

Everything is fine, okay?

You're freaking me out.

Look... Look at me.

There's nothing to be scared of.

Okay?

Would you tell me if something happened?

I promise.

Everything's fine, though.

Everything's fine.

Everything's fine.

Okay.

Put the g*n down. I'll get you some ice.

[Sighs]



[Sighs]

[Grunting]

[Laughs]

Oh, f*ck.



Cam: I know I pushed you into the business, the undercurrent business.

I know I should have... helped you a little bit more when you had the boys.

But I didn't want to wade into the water alone.

I needed you to... pull me up.

I just needed you to navigate... when I was blind.

[Woman speaking indistinctly over P.A.]



[Grunts]



Now, we had a chance to be better.

Well, you did.

I was always gonna be who I am. [Chuckles]

[Monitor beeping]

You're the best version of both of us.



Jake: So, this is where it goes from just a rock to a gem.

Misty: They're all so stunning.

I don't know how people decide.

Well, you know what they say... beauty is in the eye of the beholder.

One second.

Hey, Cam, have you heard anything yet?

No. He's not awake yet.

All right.

You okay?

Um...

I just want to go check on Ava and Willow.

Do you mind?

No, you do what you got to do.

All right.

Would you like to follow me? Thank you.

Just give me one sec, okay? Just one second.

Hey, Hey. Can I talk to you for a second?

I got to run.

No, just one second, please.

Is...

Is it expensive?

What's that?

The ring?

Oh.

Um...

Have you seen the look on her face?

Yeah.

Yeah? You can't put a price on that, right?

You see, my wife... she had the exact same look when I bought her a ring.

Mm.

Priceless, right?

Really?

Yeah, really.

I didn't have any money, okay? I had nothing.

But I bought her the best damn ring I could afford.

So what's your... what's your number?

It's $2,500.

$2,500... you're in luck.

This ring's $2,400.

Now way, dude! Are you serious?

Swear to God.

I never get lucky.

Well, you just did.

Thanks, man.

All right, take a seat.

We're gonna give him that ring for $2,400.

Jake?

Gonna ring them in at $2,400.

$2,400 it is.

[Buzzer]

What's up, 'Los?!

Yo, what's up with the hand, man?

Ain't you getting a little too old for that?

Yeah, I am. Getting too old for that?

Oh, hell no, baby. That's me all day, every day.

Hey, just sliding through with the blessings, man.

Abuelita hooked you up with the empanadas, threw in a piña for you.

Mmm. Yeah, I don't f*ck with pineapple.

I do.

Do you?

Yeah.

You?

Cam, you never cease to amaze me, man.

You know this ain't no bag of porridge, old man.

Who made it, your mama?

My grandmother.

Ah! Well, no wonder she's been married for 55 years, eh?

You know that's right. [Whistles]

Finally ready to pull the trigger on that ring you been looking at?

Man, you better get the f*ck out of here with all that talk.

How am I gonna explain all this on my salary, man?

Well, there's more than one way to be creative when buying diamonds.

My personal favorite is inheritance.

But, you know, I... I'm just saying.

Okay. And do you have any idea how many Mexicans have to die in my family before I can inher...

I thought you was an A-rab.

Oh, ho, ho! This one!

Ah.

Well, when you are ready...

I'm your man, right?

Yeah, siempre, man. I know that, yo, yo.

What, you in a hurry?

Yeah, well, yeah.

Come on, man.

I got to run.

Come on, man.

We're just having a nice talk, right?

I mean, I ain't buying, but I can... I can ask.

What do you say, Cam?

[Taps glass]

This piece.

What's that worth?

More than your camel.

[Chuckles] Back to that A-rab sh*t.

All that f*cking money, you can't afford a map?

I'm gonna buy you a map.

This guy, man.

Hey, yo.

Either one of you hear about Avi Kreshman?

Hmm? That knucklehead, man.

His father filed a missing persons on his ass.

What's new?

You know...

Avi could fall asleep on a park bench for a year.

Yeah, right.

Remember in ninth grade, that field trip up to Topanga Canyon?

We were halfway back to Hollywood on the bus before Mrs. Stuher realized his ass was not on it, right?

Yo, but, man, real talk, man, Avi's ass is in the wind.

So now I'm just hitting up all the old heads from Fairfax who were f*cking with him.

Yeah, like who?

Everybody...

Yegenev, Bushy, Applebaum, Lebowitz, and Uhler.

Yeah. Sounds like a damn law firm.

Damn straight it does.

I'm telling you, man, something ain't right.

Maybe it's just the cop in me, man, but my mind is spinning.

Avi and Freddy... two peas in a pod.

Freddy got to know something, man.

I mean, he around?

[Exhales deeply] No.

He's not.

Hmm.

You know Freddy.

Yeah.

I do.

Now, I got to say, you are looking awfully expensive today, Cam.

[Chuckles]

You boys keep it shiny.

Have Freddy give me a call as soon as you see him.

I will.

All right.

Hey, you know, Cam, be straight with me, man.

That stone... that thing really worth more than my ride?

Just a little bit more.

Hmm.

Seems like I'm in the wrong line of work.

Yes, you are.

See you around, Jake.

[Door buzzes]

[Lock clicks]

He don't know sh*t.

You know that stone you sold those kids?

It was worth five Gs.

Five f*cking Gs.

[Siren wails in distance]

[Line ringing]

This is Ava. Leave a message.

Ah, sh*t.

You know what? Just call me back.

[Tapping]



[Rings]

This is Ava. Leave a message.

Hey. I'm Just checking on you and Willow, making sure nobody came by your house.

[Car alarms blaring, horns honking]



[Grunting]

[Vehicle approaches]

[Brakes squeal]

Get that...

You're coming with us.

[Groaning]

[Blaring, honking continue]

Move. Move.

[Shouts indistinctly]

[Tires squeal]



Clean yourself up.

Could have just called.

[Sighs] Not nearly as much fun, Jacob.

I know what a dangerous man you can be.

It would be a shame for your family to experience something so... primitive.

What do you want?

There's a deal in town I had Avi set up for me.

So?

Avi is now deceased, gone, missing.

Whatever we'll call it.

The train's moving fast, Jacob.

Either you're on it or you're under it.

These stones are valuable, and the buy has been set at $5 million.

This makes us even.

[Chuckles]

Not quite.

Make the deal, Jacob.

That's what you're good at.

Yeah. Where are these diamonds from that you want so badly?

Qatar.

Blood diamonds.

I don't f*ck with blood diamonds anymore.

Really?

Really.



I know you, Jacob.

My diamond man.

There's your brother, safe.

You want to keep him that way, you do the f*cking deal.

We're done.



[Vehicle door closes]

Drive.



[Siren wailing in distance]



[Sighs]



[Door opens]



[Clears throat]

[Door closes]

[Sniffles]

[Chuckles]

You must understand...

I do not like surprises.

It was a last-minute decision.

I just got to tell you, I really love your, uh, your belt buckle.

Did you win a rodeo?

Is that...

Freddy?

Let's not get into some bullshit over taste.

We have real business to attend to.

[Snaps fingers]

Okay, did you... did you just order a falafel, 'cause I... I'd love a kebab if that's...

Shut the f*ck up!

I'm sorry. I'm just trying to lighten things up here.

No kebab for you.

[Sniffles]

Solomon: I assume you know the price.

Yes.

Here they are.

Easy, whoa!

I'm just... I'm taking a closer look.

Come on.



You understand the terms of the deal?

We do.

But I'm gonna be clear, we're only here to call the stones, make the deal, and leave.

Oh.

Then continue.

Would you like a loupe?

Oh, no. No, thank you.

I don't need one.

[Speaking Arabic]

[Laughter]

Did we miss the joke?

Man, I never get tired of looking at them.

Always feels like the first time.

And not just 'cause they're beautiful.

It's not that simple.

It's because each of these completely inanimate objects have more life crammed into them than... almost anything on Earth.

More than me, more than all of you.

These babies have... they've been through it.

They've suffered, they've persevered, they've changed.

And if you look... really close, you can... you can almost feel their wisdom... and hear their story.

[Sighs]

And that story, no matter how many times it's told... well... it'll outlive us all.

[Inhales]

Yeah, those are... beautiful.

"D" Flawless stones.

Oh, and, um...

...they're Type IIa.

Can I get a bottle of water, please?

How did you know that without using a machine?

Oh, I... I looked at them.

He's special.

That, he is.

Look, you guys stop it.

Thank you. I think you guys are special, too.

[Clears throat]

So... do we have a deal?

See the money?

We're gonna have to pass.

What the f*ck are you doing?

You walk out of here without these stones, we are all dead.

We're gonna have to pass.

You're f*cking crazy.

These diamonds are worth $30 million on the street.

We're done here.

Whoa, whoa!

Whoa, Jesus!

Jake!

Jesus.

You could let us leave, or we can all die.

That's up to you.

I vote for let us leave. I think it's a better option... for everybody.

I vote for leaving.

Okay. Let's go.



You better know what the f*ck you just did or Lady Rah is going to k*ll us.

Jake, you okay?

Oh, f*ck!

Ah! sh*t!

[Grunts]

Oh!

[Hyenas snarling]

[Grunts]

What the f*ck is that sound?

Jake, what the f*ck is that sound?

[Snarling continues]

Jesus Christ!

What the f*ck?!

f*cking hyenas!

Jake, she's got f*cking hyenas!

Jesus Christ!

What the f*ck?

They can smell the blood.

It's in the air now.

[Door rattles]

It's in their lungs.

What? [Groans]

[Snarling]

Every breath they take, they can taste it.

[Hyenas yipping]

The longer it lingers, the stronger it gets.

It doesn't dissipate with time.

[Grunts]

No, f*ck!

You had one f*cking thing to do, Jacob... buy the stones.

I am very disappointed in you.

[Hyenas growling]

Finish him.

No.

[g*n cocks]

No, no!

Open the cage!

No! Don't open the f*cking cage!

Don't you open that cage! Jake!

They were feds!

Don't you f*cking open it!

They were f*cking feds, Rah.

Wait.

Will you f*cking listen to us?!

What?

It was a setup.

That entire thing was a setup.

[Hyenas yipping]

Your boy Solomon, he's a f*cking fed.

Do we have a deal?



Can I have a bottle of water, please?

I... I got to tell you, dude, I really love your belt buckle.

Did you win a rodeo?

Those stones could not have been from Qatar.

They were Type IIa. Can I finish?

Can only be from one mine and one mine only, and that's in India.

[Whimpering]

Those stones were seized like six months ago out of Chula Vista in the Domingo Cartel raid.

The feds confiscated those stones and a whole shitload of blow, too.

Who the f*ck are those guys?

f*ck!

Look, if we would have bought those stones like you instructed, the feds would be at your doorstep right now.

If your brother is lying, I will have them eating right f*cking now.

He's not.

[Hyenas snarling]

Phone.

[Snarling continues, door rattles]



[Yipping, growling]

[Sobbing]

I'm telling the truth.

[Hyenas snarling, door rattling]



Freddy: Pop.

Pop.

[Monitor beeping slowly]

I'm sorry, Pop.

Can you hear me? It's Freddy.

I'll be right there.

What happened, kid?

We're still breathing.



Are we done?

Not even close.

Pop...

I'm sorry, Pop.

Freddy...

Yeah, Pop?

Yeah?

Pop, you awake?

[Chuckles]

Can you hear me? It's Freddy.

Freddy.

[Distorted voice] Can you hear me?

There he is, there he is.

He's awake.

Oh.

He's awake, he's awake. All right.

Hey.

Is there...

Ava: Shh. Hey.

You gave us a scare.

He's all right, Willie G.

He's gonna be okay.

You had us worried sick.

That right?

I'm sorry, Pop.

It's okay.

It's okay.

You're gonna be all right.

[Chuckles]

You're gonna be all right.

Right here, Pop.
